Review: Slaughter

Title: Slaughter
Author: Shantel Tessier
Genre: Dark Romance

My name is Avery Decker, and my story isn’t for the faint of heart. It is about revenge and hatred, misery and violence. I wasn’t always this way even though it was in my blood. I grew up happy and in love with my best friend until she betrayed me and walked away. After that, I fell into the deep, dark world I was meant for.

Presleigh Clarke's actions turned me into the ruthless man I am today. Too bad for her, I believe people should pay for the things they have done. The more painful and messy, the better. I get off on making people bleed. It feeds my inner demon, and right now, he is starving. She crossed me once, so now she’ll know what it’s like to fear me. But not all stories end the way you think they will … mine certainly didn’t.

"If I had to choose, I'd choose madness over boring any day."
Avery & Presleigh's story is full of anger, hate, secrets & lies, revenge, misery and violence. After lies and secrets ended their relationship eleven years ago, Avery decides to finally act against Presleigh. Avery spent his life making people bleed for the things they have done, and Presleigh will be no different. It doesn't matter that he used to love her, now she will learn to fear him. But sometimes things don't always go as planned.
I LOVED Avery & Presleigh's story. It was dark, twisted, and full of revenge, but there was so much more. Underlining feelings, flashbacks to their past, and their reasonings behind everything being revealed. Despite everything Presleigh has gone through she is still so strong, and has a fire about her, and I love that about her. And Avery is a rich prick, hell-bent on bringing revenge and misery to those who deserve it- and his eyes are set on Presleigh, the girl he once loved. It DOES have content that may trigger, and it's dark and twisted but oh so good, and I loved every crazy minute of it. 5⭐ out of 5⭐
